I have tying seawitches since i was a kid so the nylon wasnt hard for me. Learning a powder paint technique was the hard part. I ended up learning from another friend of mine to heat jig head in oven.......remove with visegrips...sprinkle and brush out powder paint....return to oven for 10 minutes....remove and paint again then bake for 10 minutes. They come out perfect everytime.
